Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume presents work focused on underrepresented persons in a variety of levels of higher education. Each scholar has used critical quantitative approaches to examine access and/or success in the higher education arena. Their scholarship pushes the boundaries of what we know by questioning mainstream notions of higher education through the examination of policies the re-framing of theories and measures the reexamination of traditional questions for nontraditional populations.The work is divergent, but the commonality of the presentations lies in each scholar's critical approach to convention |
